Has the current recession affected your job at all? I work in a small LTC in a small community. We hold 60 but census has not been above 32 in over a year. Our marketing nurse said she discovered many unemployed adult children are taking Mom or Dad into their home and useing the SS income to pay the house paymants. Becaause the census is low, we only get scheduled for part time. Like 8 or 9 days a pay period and they always have one nurse leave her shift an hour early. What have you experienced in your area?
